HI everyone!!! Sorry for the tremendous radio silence on my end. For some reason notifications stopped coming into my email so I've been missing out. Just a quick update:

1) still have some food that bothers me, but mostly I'm ok and trying lots of new things

2) I drink ginger ale and Water like it's going out of style; doc said ok to the ginger ale as long as I do it slow and not iced cold

3) tmrw will be 11 weeks post op and I'm ~ 30#s down.

4) just sharing a before and after. The before was from a week or so pre surgery and the post is from today.

RMSpencer,

You look great! How do you feel about the change? Do many people comment on your loss? I love those shoes!

@@Peekboo I sometimes feel like I can see or feel a difference and then other times when I'm feeling less positive. Some people notice and others don't, or at least don't say anything.

I have basically the same feelings. I have only had 2 people at work say something about my loss and they know I had the surgery so they may be trying to be nice. In a way its good because im not getting a lot of questions. Im just happy not to be in the 200 range anymore.

It seems crazy to me that you've lost over 35lbs and no one's said anything! I have the same reaction because I'm over 30lbs down and it's kind of like... I've lost 30 POUNDS people!! Can't you tell?? hahaha

I know. It makes wonder if it's really noticeable yet. But I really see a big difference in your pictures. I will look and see what I can find to post a before and after. I never did much pic taking though :-)

You have done awesome. Was all fifty lost after surgery? How many calories ate you having each day?

45 pounds were from the surgery :)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
